“Great.” Her spirit groaned. Her parents were back in town. By now Katie had probably told them all about this meeting and they were all hatching another scheme.
“I promise I won’t do it again.”
“Thanks. I appreciate your discretion.”
“I can be very discreet,” Cade assured her. But his eyes wouldn’t release hers and a frown now marred the smooth perfection of his forehead. “Only—”
“Yes?”
“Is there something you’re not telling me?”
She had to explain. Otherwise he’d get tricked into their manipulations and maybe expect more—Sara shoved a mass of unruly ringlets behind her ear and dived in.
“Cade, I understand that you love your sister.”
“As, I’m sure, you love your family.” He said it casually, with the assurance of someone completely confident in his family’s love.
“I do love them. Very much. But—” she waited until the salads were served and they were alone again “—my family is a pain.”
It sounded horrible, but it was the truth.
Cade laughed.
“All families are at some time or another, I suppose.” A small smile played around his firm lips. “It’s the nature of the beast.”
Sara’s stomach clenched. She looked through the window, bending her head so the ringlets swung forward, offering him no opportunity to read her expression.
“It’s a little more than that in my case,” she said quietly. “My family believes my move to Los Angeles to pursue my career is a terrible mistake. They’ve tried, over and over, to get me to give it up, to stick with Weddings by Woodwards. They even try to change my ideas. I think they feel I’ve somehow diminished their work because I chose to leave, to pursue something else.”
“I see.”
He didn’t, but he would soon.
“The other Woodwards, my brothers Reese and Donovan, and my sister, Katie, all are a part of the company. So are my parents and, of course, my grandmother. If she’d had more than one son, he’d be part of it, too. And be happy to be there.”
